IB COURSE OBJECTIVES

The IB curriculum provides a cohesive and comprehensive liberal arts and sciences program of study for highly motivated juniors and seniors of differing educational backgrounds, abilities, and interests. It is not just a set of examinations, but a rigorous pre-university program, which will provide the basis for life-long education. IB aims to provide a balanced program, which stimulates thought and creativity and enhances the international perspective of students. Students who satisfy the demands of the program demonstrate a strong commitment to learning, both in terms of mastery of content and the development of skills.

The purpose of the IB curriculum is to:

•    educate young people to act intelligently and responsibly in a complex society;
•    ensure knowledge of traditional academic disciplines and of the individual's own heritage, while fostering inquisitiveness and openness to new ideas; and
•    equip students with a genuine understanding of themselves and others, heightening the capacity for tolerance and engendering respect for different points of view.
